So I've finished my project. It took me 10 hours last night between rewiring, making my own main battery wire with auxiliary cable, and actually getting the box mounted. It was a lot more tedious than I thought it'd be. I ended up having to remove the gas tank and exhaust which I didn't plan on, but now that everything is done, my new box got scratched quite a bit. I didn't take any pictures as I was focused on getting done quickly and had school that morning (didn't finish until 5am) but soon I will take it apart and reassemble with a good bit of photos to show the steps. Now though where my battery box used to mount is just bare, so I'm thinking of putting a steel plate over it like on black beauty, and am probably going to mount the rectifier where the old box used to be. Overall it's not a tough mod to finish , regardless of having a battery box or not, but making the wiring look nice is a pain, had to lengthen lots of wire's. Also thinking of making that bit of steel follow the frame up to the carb, so I can mount things and more easily hide things beneath the seat and when I change my seat by welding on some DOM tubing, I'll have a little compartment there , ironically, I'll probably put my battery there once I change my seat this way, so this mod I've done could be just temporary, but for now I love having the free space I've created by relocating the battery box. Ok so once again, pics will be coming soon, but it looks great!
